Wakefield High School’s Project Upstanders, Washington-Lee High School’s Best Buddies Club among award winners of 2012 James B. Hunter Human Rights Award, from the Arlington Human Rights Commission

Public invited to Dec.13 award ceremony

I got to see a video made by the Wakefield Upstanders last year - it was awesome and awe-inspiring. With the talk in schools, the movie Bully last year and many other conversations about this issue, you may feel like you've heard it all. But i guarantee you that doesn't mean bullying isn't happening, especially to kids who are viewed as "Different" in any way, this very minute.
